WBB: American Southwest Conference

Congrats to Meia Daniels on being named ASC Female Athlete of the Year for the 2nd straight year.

After knowing him and his family when they were in Brownwood, his father was a pastor at the church I attend,  I have no doubt he's a great man, a great coach, and someone who will keep a good reputation with the HPU women's basketball program.  

Guilty by association doesn't always apply.  I think a lot of us have worked for a boss that hasn't always done things the right way but that doesn't mean you've joined in with what they've done.  To imply that someone has done so without any facts could falsely damage someone's reputation.  


As far as questioning someone's integrity, get to know someone first before you make a decision, you might be surprised at what you find out about them.

I agree with you.  I don't think anybody should judge Prock or anyone else that got left in the wake of an idiot.  Sampson took his show to Indiana and look where that got him.  It is a shame that some people get away with anything one place and go somewhere else to end up doing the same thing.  Sad!!!

Hope everything works out for HPU, it has been a fun few years watching the matchups between us.

Hardin-Simmons has a new athletic's web site. If you have www.hsuathletics.cstv.com as your bookmark, you will have to change it to just www.hsuathletics.com.

I am kind of new to the site but think it's great.  I have a daughter going to be at UT Dallas this year.  I look forward to being able to follow the league on line.  With school getting ready to start I assume the board will pick up with all the conferences new signing etc...

[Ralph Turner]

Welcome!  Always glad to have fans from the East.  It's good to have another UT-Dallas fan!

[SabineBBall]

I saw McMurry play several times last year.  Your post was a great talent.  I am sure the rest of the conference is glad she graduated lol.  The East seems to be getting a little closer to the west (at the top anyway).  I think I saw 11 of the conferences teams play last year.  I know I should have something better to do lol.

We bid adieu to Concordia's Head Coach, Linda Sharp.

HOF Coach Sharp's lifetime record is 496-271 including national championships at USC in 1983-84.

In seven seasons at CTX, she went 87-87, (with teams that were good enough to win conference championships in half of the conferences in D-III, IMHO).

[SabineBBall]

Practice right around the corner.  I am looking forward to the season.  I followed the league somewhat last year but with a kid playing this year I look forward to really supporting the league.  I assume rosters will be posted soon after practice starts for most teams?  Anyone have preseason predictions for who battles for east and west titles?  When does the first D3 poll come out?  I look forward to keeping up with everyone on here.

Concordia hires new head women's basketball coach.

Sounds like a good one. Anybody know anything more about Coach Cochran?

[Ralph Turner]

Women's Pre-season Poll.

Lady Jackets are still the team to beat!

The new CTX coach looks like a really good one.  The new campus, his young enthusiastic hunger to take the program to the next level and a great recruiting area such as Texas Women's Basketball are all factors in this mix.

The ASC-West just got tougher!

Concordia hires new head women's basketball coach.

Sounds like a good one. Anybody know anything more about Coach Cochran?

Despite not having an awful lot of depth on his bench last season, Coach Cochrane's squad was leading the Northern Athletics Conference for much of the regular season last year until a late slump. Then, Rockford lost to Concordia-Chicago in the first round of the conference playoffs,--(yes, that Concordia-Chicago-which later gave WLC all it could handle, before taking a 2-point loss on the road.

IMHO-He'll have CUA making its' share of noise.

I hope the polls are correct, but here's how I would guess it will be.
1.) HSU
2.) MHB
3.) HPU
4.) McMurry

I'm guessing the winner of the West, will have 3 to 4 conference losses this year.   All 4 of the above teams will be hard to beat at home.

[SabineBBall]

So preseason poll has

HP at #13
McMurry #20
Hardin Simmons 11 points putting them at #39

Did HP get some new recruits no one is talking about?  From seeing what each had last year and who was coming back it looks backwards to me.  HP doesn't have their roster up yet so can't really see who they have. 

[Pat Coleman]

Some voters give the defending national champ the benefit of the doubt. No. 13, however, is the lowest a defending national champ has ever been rated in our poll.

HP doesn't have their roster up yet so can't really see who they have. 

Howard Payne refused to provide names of incoming players for our voters, either, so you can draw your own conclusions, I guess.
